aps/InfoBoard

A container inside an ``ActiveItem``.

There are two types of ``aps/InfoBoard`` presentations defined by its ``isList`` property. If true - elements will be aligned as list items, false - regular alignment.

Overview

The InfoBoard widget is used in the header of the ActiveItem container.

There are two types of aps/InfoBoard presentations defined by its isList property. If the latter is true the elements will be aligned as list items, if false the regular alignment will be applied. Default value is false.

It is recommended to specify not more than one information board per one ActiveItem.

Examples

["aps/ActiveList", [
    ["aps/ActiveItem", {title: "Server"}, [
        ["aps/InfoBoard", [
            ["aps/Gauge", {
                minimum: 0,
                maximum: 200,
                value: 152
            }],
            ["aps/Gauge", {
                minimum: 0,
                maximum: 1024,
                value: 820
            }]
        ]]
    ]]
]]

Public Properties

PROPERTY TYPE DEFAULT DESCRIPTION
cols number 3 Number of columns in a container.
disabled boolean false Specifies if the widget will respond to user input.
gridSize string undefined This specifies the widget width that is relevant only for widgets inside Container, FieldSet, or Tiles.
isBusy boolean false If the widget is busy then this property is true.
isList boolean true Container type.
label string “” Text that is shown as a label if the widget is placed inside a aps/FieldSet.
visible boolean true If this property value is set to true, then the widget is visible.

cols number

Number of columns in a container. The default value is 3. Works only in list.

disabled boolean

Specifies if the widget will respond to user input.

Default value: false.

gridSize string

This specifies the widget width that is relevant only for widgets inside Container, FieldSet, or Tiles. In other cases it will be ignored.

gridSize string contains few options with number values (from 1 to 12) separated by spaces, which specify the grid size of the widget in different layouts:

- md - desktop

- xs - phone

For example, gridSize: “md-4 xs-2”.

All values below 1, e.g. “md-0”, will be replaced with the empty string (“”), values above 12, e.g. “md-14”, will be reduced to 12 (“md-12”).

Default value: undefined.

isBusy boolean

If the widget is busy then this property is true.

Default value: false.

isList boolean

Container type. True - elements will be aligned as list items, false - regular. Default value: true.

label string

Text that is shown as a label if the widget is placed inside a aps/FieldSet.

Default value: “”.

visible boolean

If this property value is set to true, then the widget is visible.

Default value: true.

addChild

Makes the given widget a child of this widget. Inserts specified child widget’s dom node as a child of this widget’s container node, and possibly does other processing (such as layout).

Return: undefined

ARGUMENT TYPE DESCRIPTION
child
Widget
Child widget
insertIndex
Number
String
Position child in the parent widget

cancel

Sets the isBusy property to false.

Return: object

destroy

Destroys this widget. Will also destroy any resources (including widgets) registered via this.own(). This method will also destroy internal widgets such as those created from a template.

Return: undefined

focus

Focusing the focusable child

Return: aps/_containerbase function

get

Get a property of the Stateful instance. Get a named property of the Stateful object. The property may potentially be retrieved via a getter method in subclasses.

In the base class, this just retrieves the object’s property.

Return: any

getChildren

Returns all direct children of this widget, i.e. all widgets underneath this.containerNode whose parent is this widget. Note that it returns not all descendetns, but only the direct children. Analogous to Node.childNodes, except containing widgets rather than DOMNodes.

The result intentionally excludes internally created widgets (a.k.a. supporting widgets) outside of this.containerNode.

Note the returned array is a simple array. The application code should not assume existence of methods like forEach().

Return: array

getParents

Discover and return all parents of the widget.

Return: array

placeAt

Place this widget somewhere in the DOM based on standard dojo/dom-construct::place() conventions. A convenience function providing a simple shorthand mechanism to put an existing (or newly created) widget somewhere in the DOM, and allow chaining.

Return: dijit/_widgetbase function

removeAll

Remove all children in the widget.

Return: undefined

removeChild

Removes the passed widget instance from this widget and destroys it. You can also pass in an integer indicating the index within the container to remove (ie, removeChild(5) removes the sixth widget).

Return: undefined

ARGUMENT TYPE DESCRIPTION
widget
Widget
Int
Child widget or index

reset

Resets the widget.

Return: undefined

set

Set a property of the Stateful instance. Sets named properties of the stateful object and notifies the watchers of the property. A programmatic setter may be defined in subclasses.

Return: object function

startup

Gets started after the DOM fragment is added to the document Called after the widget and its children have been created and added to the page, and all related widgets have finished their create() cycle, up through postCreate().

Note that startup() may be called while the widget is still hidden, for example if the widget is inside a hidden dijit/Dialog or an unselected tab of a dijit/layout/TabContainer. For widgets that need to do layout, it’s best to put that layout code inside resize(), and then extend dijit/layout/_LayoutWidget so that resize() is called when the widget is visible.

Return: undefined

validate

Called by oninit, onblur, and onkeypress. Show missing or invalid messages if appropriate, and highlight textbox field.

Return: boolean

Public Events

EVENT RETURN DESCRIPTION
onClick ()
undefined
The method is called when a user clicks on the widget

onClick

The method is called when a user clicks on the widget.
